About This Piece
This digital photo album template was created for the FOCAL (Free and Open-source Creative Art Library) project during the FOSSEE Summer Fellowship 2020.
The Objective

The template features a modern, aesthetic layout with:
- Placeholder Frames: Pre-defined areas for easy image insertion.
